I had no idea about this feature, so I guess I've just proved it's not obvious to everyone.

I can understand it's a good feature to avoid seeing triggering posts.

But when I read a comment on here that someone can't post on one of the games threads they used to enjoy - well, that can't be right. The games threads are harmless fun and a therapeutic distraction for many of us, being stopped from posting could be triggering in itself.
